For years, we have only be hearing from the anti-Vaxxers and why they don’t vaccinate their kids. In recent weeks, a measles outbreak that started at Disneyland has caused the people who get their kids vaccinated to speak up and have their voices heard.
It has gone as far as the late night hosts talking about, and tonight Conan O’Brien took it to a whole new level of getting on a Soap Box and letting his voice be heard via comedy. His people on the TBS show created a Daycare where kids with and without vaccines can play as one.
They say truth comes in humor and there was a lot of humor in this bit.
While I try not to get political on my blog, I believe in vaccinations. It is not only your kid you are putting at risk from spreading a deadly or debilitating preventable disease, you are also putting people who can’t get vaccinations for valid medical reasons at risk. Kids with compromised immune systems due to cancer or transplants. Just something to think about the next time you tell your doctor you don’t want to get your child vaccinated.
